*

Significantly different from reference group at the .05 level, two-sided test.

1

Model 1a controlled for age, sex, census region, urbanicity, strength of ethnic identity, language preference, and nativity.

2

Model 1b addresses significant interaction effects observed between race/ethnicity and nativity for mood disorder prevalence. Specifically, joint significance tests of interactions between race/ethnicity and nativity in Model 1a produced the following results: mood disorder (F9,3.66E6 = 2.16, p=0.02), substance use disorder (F9, 1.75E6 = 0.78, p=0.63), and anxiety disorder (F9,1.04E6 = 1.39, p=0.19). Because no interaction effect emerged for anxiety or substance use disorders, Model 1b is identical to Model 1a for these types of disorders and no new results are presented in this column. An interaction effect between race/ethnicity and nativity was observed for mood disorder prevalence, so White respondents were split into two groups for Model 1b analysis. Race/ethnicity/nativity groups for White respondents included: 1) immigrant/first-generation American Whites (i.e., foreign-born or US-born with two foreign-born parents) and 2) second-generation American or later Whites (i.e., US-born with at least one US-born parent). As a result, nativity was excluded as a control variable.

3

Model 2 added education and personal earnings to the variables included in Models 1a and 1b.

4

Denominator of degrees of freedom adjusted for multiple imputation. Note that F-tests with three degrees of freedom (four degrees of freedom for mood disorder analyses) determine whether minority groups differ significantly from Whites; F-tests with two degrees of freedom (three degrees of freedom for mood disorder analyses) test for differences between/among minority groups.
